I made the right choice coming to King's! The atmosphere is warm here. The staff is always very friendly, enthusiastic, and dedicated. All lecturers always encourage us to raise our hands and to give some questions. Academic learning and cultural awareness enrich our knowledge and allow us to experience London in depth.
